Description:Elizabeth Nyman. SHI: Audio recording of Elizabeth Nyman, Yanyeidí clan, speaking in Tlingit to linguist Jeff Leer, March 8, 1986. Labeled �Elizabeth Nyman.� Side A: 33 minutes in length. Content review by DK: Nyman begins by discussing glaciers, the story of how a slave was killed on a glacier; then discussion on the glacier people; mention of how the glacier interacts with nature, and how the Taku glacier advanced across the inlet, then receded, and is now beginning to advance again; to 4:34; Nyman then explains various aspects of the fire dish and how to respectfully contribute, then discussion of processing salmon, and how Ravens marked their processed salmon like the footprints of a raven, and Eagles with slashes at an angle [a type of moiety trademark]; to 20:17; Nyman then responds to Leer�s questions about how smokehouses are made and how salmon are processed, to which Nyman responds in detail; to end of recording. Comments: The recordings in this collection were donated to the Sealaska Heritage Institute in 2013 by and in partnership with the Alaska Native Language Archive of University of Alaska Fairbanks, which holds the originals. This donation and partnership occurred for mutual benefit and to better document the content of these language recordings. In 2013 through an IMLS Enhancement Grant, Sealaska Heritage Institute was able to employ fluent speakers of the Tlingit language to review certain recordings in the ANLA collection. This work was conducted by elders David Katzeek (Tlingit name Kingeistí, Shangukeidí clan) and Paul Marks (Tlingit name Kinkaduneek, Lukaax.ádi clan). Zachary Zones, SHI Archivist, April 2014.
